George Müller (1805-1898) was a Christian evangelist and the coordinator of the Ashley Down orphanage in Bristol, England. Born in Kroppenstedt, Prussia, Müller's early life was not emblematic of the pious character he would later embody. His youth was marked by theft and deceit until a transformative religious conversion in his twenties. After moving to England to work with the London Missionary Society, he eventually settled in Bristol, where he became known for his faith-driven approach to caring for orphans and his reliance upon prayer to meet their needs. Müller's faith-based principles were a departure from the reliance on conventional financial support mechanisms for charitable work; he maintained an unwavering belief in the power of prayer, which he famously documented in his book 'Answers to Prayer' (George Müller & A.E.C. Brooks, 1895). This publication provides a compelling narrative of Müller's spiritual journey and the remarkable answers to prayer he encountered throughout his ministry. Notably, Müller refused to make direct financial appeals, trusting instead that God would move people to support his work voluntarily, a method that proved extraordinarily effective during his lifetime. His broader literary corpus reflects his devotional and evangelical zeal, reinforcing his standing as a significant figure in 19th-century Christian philanthropy and serving as an inspiration for faith-led charitable initiatives. Müller's simple but powerful literary style conveys a profound and heartfelt reliance on divine providence.
